Cavs needed a SF in the worst way and a scorer to take pressure off of Kyrie so he doesnt have to facilitate everything and still score 20+ pts a night. Deng will help them defensively too. If its just a one year rental- which it probably is- Im not sure I like it that much.

Both are expiring so no long term damage either way (and really, Bynum will be waived today to save a bunch of money for the Bulls). Cavs get a piece that should propel them to the playoffs, Bulls shed salary and get something for Deng before he walks (he wasn't re-signing), and Bynum whines his way to a contender via FA.
